Member Testimonials

“IndySHRM is a dynamic, active organization with many opportunities to get involved. As a committee leader in the past, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with our motivated, engaging Legislative Affairs committee to plan meaningful content for IndySHRM’s membership.”

Shelley Jackson, Plews Shadley Racher & Braun LLP

"Over the past two years as a member of the Diversity and Inclusion committee, I have been able to add depth to my HR knowledge from attending the programs IndySHRM offers while expanding my network with great people that I have met."

Britt Griffin, IndySHRM Diversity & Inclusion Committee Member

"I have participated in IndySHRM for over 2 decades because I find tremendous value in the relationships and the information exchange offered by the organization. Some of my favorite HR people are those I have gotten to know through IndySHRM over the years - folks I call for support, key learning and even just for fun. Being part of the board has provided another level of engagement that challenges me to participate in win-win relationship with the chapter. If you are an HR professional at any level and you are not part of IndySHRM, you are missing out."

IndySHRM study group participants will receive both SHRM Learning System hardcopy booklets as well as online/web based versions of the booklets to download to an e-reader, etc. (materials ARE INCLUDED in the price of the IndySHRM SHRM-CP/SHRM-SCP study group.)
